[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wow. We are talking about a young child who recently lost her mother. Middle school is hard enough as is, but to lose your mother, and be cut from a team you have played on for many years. Please, treat her as you would like your kid to be treated, and keep her on the team this year. You will never know, but it could make all the difference in her life. [/quote]

Or maybe she hates basketball and she can't believe she's being forced to play even when she's miserable about her mom. We don't know. The coach should talk to her. "You don't seem to be improving. Do you WANT to continue playing? Because if not, we can make you team manager, or I am happy to talk to your father for you." [/quote]

Some of you will go to great lengths to justify your heartlessness. Parents don’t force a lackluster kid to keep at a sport for years, let alone after a parent’s death. [/quote]

Parents force kids to play sports they aren’t that great at all the time.[/quote]
